I don't know what KDE in rawhide is configured to use in terms of dbus
related automounting... but the fact that fstab is empty is expected.
fstab-sync is gone and is being replaced with "pure" dbus/hal methods
which both desktop should be taking advantage of in their own way.  I
do not know the kde equivalent of gnome-volume-manager but I'm sure it
exists, other distributions use kde with "pmount" based on hal/dbus
interaction.

I will say that I'm not surprised that you are having problems with
this in  rawhide KDE.. I'm having similar problems with GNOME at the
moment.  Devices are only being correctly seen by natilus and the
automounter if they are plugged in before login to the desktop.  Even
odder is if they are unplugged, nautilus continues to list them AND
the listing and mountpoint will get reused by another usb device even
though the listing and mountpoint are volume-label specific and should
NOT be re-used by a different storage device with a different volume
label.
